Automate Azure App Services for website

Azure App Services for website

Automate the launching of websites via Azure services. This usually is a manual process of updating DNS to point to azure and adding the domain to azure. Godaddy has an API that allows changing A, txt and CName records. I need to be able to:

a) Add a domain to aure without having to pove the a/cname records to azure so this step can be done before launch is needed

b) API or somethig that will let me add domains to a web app from an automated process (API, etc)
